Prohibition Fight at Bel
Iaire.

Our Prohibition friends of Bel
laire have been making things de-
cidedly lively for two weeks past.
They succeeded in having the
question submitted to a vote, and
after a weeks red hot campaign,
III which the good women took a
most active part, they were both
disappointed and encouraged to
find they had lost the battle by
only 100 votes in this city of sixty
saloons.
In the aggregate vote of the city
there was majority of 100 against
Prohibition, but the Prohibition
lists had majorities in three out of
the five wards, and at the first
meeting of the Council after the
election, the six councilmen from
the prohibition wards, decided to
obey the voice of their constituents
and forthwith directed the city at
torney to prepare Prohibition or
dinance.
So the brave fight goes on, and
it is only question of time, and
very short time, when the saloon
must go from Bellaire as it must
soon go from all West Virginia.

Another Railway Horror.

This week the Press is again
busy reciting the beart-rending
details of another railway horror.
On Monday morning while pass
ing through a suburb of Boston a
passenger train went crashing
through a bridge. The early ar
rival of the fire department pre-
vented the additional horrors of a
fire and the burning alive of
mangled men women and child
rem.
The latest reports estimate the
killer at about forty with eighty
wounded. Many of the killed and
wounded were factory girls on their
way to work.

Governors Proclamation.
Calling an Eatra Session of the Legts-
Ldture.

Because of the Legislatures
abrupt adjournment without pass
ing the necessary appropriation
bills, His Excellency Governor
Wilson has issued his proelama-
ton calling an extra session to
convene April Goth.
The Governor has certainly
blocked out a big job OF work for
an extra session. Including the
appropriation bill, he has designat-
ed and specified eleven several
subjects fOs legislative considera-
ton, among which are,
The matters of criminal charges
and maintaining lunatics in jails !;
regulating railroad rates and pro.
viding against discrimination !;
prohibiting railroads from carry
ing public officers free prohibit
ing railroads from carrying dele
gates to conventions free; prohib-
iting improper use of money ETC.,
in conventions and elections to
provide for settlement of boundary
lines between West Virginia and
Virginia, Maryland and Pennsyl-
vania to act on executive nomina-
tions etc., etc.
The Governor makes no mention
in his proclamation of the little
matter of electing an United
States Senator.
We doubt if the honorable boys
will get through with all the big
task the Governor has assigned
them.

The Wave OF Fanaticism STRIKES
the Liquor Men with AlarM.

The liquor interests of the coun-
try affect to scout at "the wave of
fanaticism" which is sweeping over
the country, and to believe that it
will soon subside. But as mat
ter of fact they are alarmed, and
panic. stricken. Their real feel
ings are revealed when they come
to talk among themselves. One of
their papers, The Public Leader, of
Detroit, cries out after this fashion ;
Liquor men, will ye take warning
ere yet there is time? Arouse
Arouse! Grid on your armor
You are strong and lusty there is
enough strength in your good right
arms to level every unsatisfied
cold-waterite in the dust. In Gods
name, gentlemen, heed our warn
ing cries! Organized Organize !"
And The Champion says: "Thesd
wild devils of fanatics mean bust
ness every time. They don't load
with blank cartridges, either. y
